Highlights
ROC Lake IV, Day 3: Moderate clouds, and very windy. First flight was the Javelin on a K700-W. It had a excellent flight, with the IA-X96 reporting 10,473 feet and max speed of 795 mph. Next and last for the day was the repaired Sandhawk on a K560-W. It was a nice flight, but the battery fell out of the RRC2 while being dragged on the ground by the wind, so no altitude was obtained.
